Alex Hetherington’s practice scrutinizes the context and reading of the pre-existing image, performance, film, subject and the nature of the 'exhibition' using improvisation, re-enactment, commingled materials, synchronization, research, collage and forms of ambiguous self-analysis, the self-portrait and a scrutiny of the ‘reference’. I operate within a framework led by technology, research, process and performance (video, sound, web, blogs, self-publishing, print, film, live art) and a practice that absorbs multiple roles including writer, producer, curator, performer, researcher, artist, editor using these tactics to develop processes through which multiple and complex synchronized outcomes can be reached.
